Title: [Small / Challenge / Easy/Normal] The Parallel Cat
Post by: yohji on October 05, 2009, 22:43:10
I got tired of working on my large level (http://nifflas.ni2.se/forum/index.php?topic=830.0) and wanted a vacation, so I thought I'd make a small, simple level in one evening. And here it is:

Juni's cat disappeared in a parallel world. Rescue the cat!

There are two endings and one requires some tricky jumps, but nothing too difficult. The (custom) music may be a bit too intrusive, sorry about that.

Also, although most parallel world messages are random, some are not and either help you or offer you drinks and stuff.

upd: Sorry, forgot to upload a screenshot. Now added.

I wouldn't say that this was either easy or normal or am I missing something?

Sorry! Maybe I've played too many KS levels and have too much experience... so I can't grade level difficulty very well. If more people find it difficult, I'll change the rating to "Hard".

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it :)

Just in case, the spoiler you provided is also what one is supposed to do to get a hint about the secret ending, although you have to

Just played this and I really like it.  :)  Very nice use of that tileset, which I always felt had great potential.  Now I'll have to go find the second ending.

Hey, thanks. I've almost forgotten about this level. Can't really remember how to get the second ending, but apparently there's a hint in my previous post in this thread - hopefully you'll find it useful  ;)

I'm using a somewhat similar tileset idea in a new level... but I have to admit I've got no idea when I'm going to finish it.

Very nice! I got the secret first and then got the normal one on the 2nd run right after double-jump powerup.
The level has many voids and 2 or 3 wallswims.

Glad you enjoyed it! I'm sorry about the voids and wallswims, back when I made it I was sure I fixed most of those. That was a year ago, though  X)

It is kind of the nature of the way you used the tileset.  Very hard to avoid wallswims around the edges with those odd shapes.
